This late 1940's post-war vintage Nash Ambassador stands proud with bright chrome and distinctive "flying" hood ornament, despite its otherwise rusted exterior.
Given the sexy hood ornament and shiny chrome bumpers, it was a difficult decision choosing whether to submit a cloes-up of the hood ornament or a full body shot.

Best junk car so far. Lovely setting, great lighting, great framing and cropping. I would have liked to see a little more of the side of the car even though it is in shadow. The left fender cuts off the line of the body and makes a sedan look like a pickup.
A 9 for finding a classic junk heap in such a lovely setting and preserving it in a beautiful photo.
